analog clocks are also really cheap and can trivially be made fucking MASSIVE (and thus easy to see)

people really get offended when you come out as a firebreathing lizard and melt their flesh off their bones

so it's okay to kill people so long as you just accuse them of some terrible crime first?

even just executive dysfunction (which MANY people have) can make stuff like showering absolutely exhausting, because it's actually a WHOLE bunch of steps in disguise. Get a towel, take off your clothes (every item is its own step, mentally), get in the bathroom and close the door, etc etc etc i can't even be arsed to list all the fucking steps dear god.

I've had to stop even trying to use shampoo because if i did i would never shower at all. I'm happy if manage to get myself into the shower and rinse off like.. a couple times per month, if that..

I just want a sonic shower like in star trek: just clothes off, get in shower and BWEEEEEEEM, clothes back on.

the stuff i use actually seems to last remarkably well, and it's not an antiperspirant so it has to last through full sweat production too!

[-] Swedneck@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 4 hours ago

you can definitely slightly hurt yourself with antiperspirants, just because sweat exists for a reason. When it's 40°C you need every single drop of sweat your body can muster to avoid heat stroke.
Thankfully deoderants without antiperspirant exists.

as the name suggests de-odorants are supposed to remove the smell, and the perfume is just an extra to mask what's left over and to make you actively smell nice.
The stuff i get is lightly perfumed and works great, it frankly baffles me that it's not the standard. There are also completely non-perfumed ones, usually branded for people who are allergic or sensitive to smells or somesuch.

fwiw many noise-cancelling head/earphones also have a "transparency mode", it draws more power but at least on my Nothing CMF buds 2 it's.. eerily good. Like i can literally forget i'm wearing earphones, it's nuts, and those are cheap ones!

Source? this is precisely the kind of thing people would AI-generate.

i've been using lineageos with microg and root (used to be magisk, but switched to kernelsu which seems much more sensible), and it frankly just seems like the best smartphone experience possible these days.

Also: you can get deoderants that aren't antiperspirants, which i personally go with because we kinda sweat for a reason (i'll take all the cooling i can possibly get)

For people who didn't know: The smell is caused by bacteria breaking down the compounds in your sweat (and other stuff that ends up in there, like skin flakes), not by the sweat itself. So it's perfectly possible to be drenched in sweat yet not smell much at all.
